If it is possible to display matlab's command window in app designer's text area?

Hi. I wonder if there is a possibility to display matlab's command window in app designer's text area. Im working with USRP B200 mini radio and i need to display command window's result in my app. This will allow the application to show the result of sending of receiving data. Without this, the application will be useless. I have no idea how to do this. Can you help me?

I don't know if you can do that, but you can output whatever you want to your app's GUI, say status messages in a uilistbox.

Why is it necessary to dump serial data to the console instead of storing it? Is that simply the behavior of some pre-existing tool, or is the code within your control?

Have you considered using evalc()?

See: FEX: CmdWinTool

cmdWinDoc = com.mathworks.mde.cmdwin.CmdWinDocument.getInstance;
initial   = cmdWinDoc.getLength;

% Run the external program:
sin(rand)

drawnow
Msg = char(cmdWinDoc.getText(initial, cmdWinDoc.getLength - initial));

Now insert Msg in the text field. This could be done by a timer also.
